Raymond, Alberta…American Creek Resources Ltd. (TSX-V:AMK / OTC:ACKRF) (the “Company”) is pleased to report that it has successfully completed its 2011 drill program on the Electrum Project. A total of 2,105 meters of diamond drilling was conducted over seven holes.
Core logging, splitting and sampling took place on site and all core samples have now been submitted to ALS Minerals for assay.
The Electrum drill program was designed to test the extension of mapped surface veins at depth and to confirm a shear/alteration zone that appears to be controlling the extensive mineralization found on the property.
The Electrum Property, located near Stewart, B.C., is 100% owned by American Creek. The property is part of a highly mineralized belt of past producing mines and encompasses the historic East Gold mine.
The Company’s 2006 drill program confirmed small veins grading as high as 440 g/t gold and 400 g/t silver over narrow widths, along with areas of widely disseminated bulk-tonnage style gold and silver. Highlights from the 2007 drill program include 26 meters of 3.01 g/t gold with 2.05 g/t silver, 2 meters of 29.9 g/t gold with 10.2 g/t silver, 6 meters of 1.70 g/t gold with 2.2 g/t silver, 1.9 meters of 9.30 g/t gold with 39.5 g/t silver, and 31 meters of 0.53 g/t gold with 2.49 g/t silver.
